The lights were off and fans whirring inside classrooms at Lou Sutton Elementary School in Novato Tuesday as students, teachers and staff coped with hundred-degree temperatures amid a record-breaking statewide heat wave.
The school was one of three campuses in the Novato Unified School district without air conditioning, prompting the district to release students early at the three campuses for the remainder of the week.
"You worry about your kids when it's not hot and they can't get out of it all day so I was really glad actually when they said that we're gonna have a half-day today." "In the classroom from seeing about 84, 85° I'm sure that's going up as we speak. And yes it's uncomfortable," Patel said."We do have our fans going, the lights are off and we're keeping activities indoors."
"There's no one that's more interested in having air-conditioning than those of us at the district office that have to try and implement all of these difficult decisions," Derby said.
